The heavens speak  the glory of God; and their expanse declares the work of His hands. Psalms 19:1

How can anyone declare there is no God.  Our earth and the entire Universe, shouts there is a God; a Creator, the Maker of heaven and earth.

The Lord is good to all He has made and His lovingkindness is everlasting.  Oh how He wants us to know Him.  And to love Him and worship Him.  Every man, woman, and child created has a place within them that can only be filled by Him.  Nothing else in this life can satisfy that place except Jesus Christ, God's Son, who purchased our redemption, our way to a relationship with the God who created us.

That redemption, what was the plan, since man had been separated from a holy God because the resulting sin from the Fall, how did He plan to bring this redemption plan about?  Through the most ordinary circumstances man has ever known.  The birth of a Baby Boy, a Savior, a King,  in a lowly stable,  to a young couple committed to obeying God, even when they most likely didn't understand every thing which was happening. From the very beginning of time, God knew man would sin against Him and He had a perfect plan already in place.   A Perfect Man coming to show the world how much the Father loves His creation.

The God of Heaven wants us to know His love for us; to know that we can be accepted by Him just as we are when we accept the gift He offered in that manger the night the angels sang from heaven at the birth of Gods Son, come to save His people.  Christ alone is our way to the Father.  Our only way to fill the void that so many live with day in and day out.  He gives life and light and peace and joy that can never be satisfied another way.


Oh Lord how wonderful You are to me.  How You fill my life with Your love and Your peace and Light my path.  I could never image life without You at the center now.  Scripture says many are invited, but few are chosen.  Thank You, thank You, thank You for choosing me as one of Your children, my blessed Redeemer.
